Thanks for the info. It's depressing though, the Turbo S doing 10.6 @ 130 in the 1/4 is amazing. GM takes a big step forward with the new Z06, and Porsche takes another leap with the Turbo S. And yes I know it's twice the price. JD

For all the complaints about the weight of the ZO6, it is the lightest car of this test, the best handling car as per tests given, .......... and by far the cheapest car in the test

It's amazing that the GTR can out-trap the Z06 with so much more curb weight and less HP
An auto z06 will probably match the trap speed of the GTR i doubt it'd beat it in a mag comparo environment (I know hero runs will likely produce higher trap speed for the z06 vs. gtr)
Turbo S is just psychotic

The steep gear ratio in first, gobs of torque at 2100rpm and AWD make a perfect recipe for that Porsche to be an absolute slingshot out of the hole!!!

These 3 cars average a 0-100mph sprint in just 6.77 seconds...
I can't image what times we will be looking at in 20 years
Not too long ago, a 0-60 run under 7 seconds was respectable.

Better traction with AWD
Quicker DCT
Shorter gearing (close spaced)

The z06 since it has the most power and only 2 wheel drive needs drag radials and beats both cars.

Modern liter bikes have been consistently faster than the Busa / ZX14 for a while now; only the ZX14R can beat most liter bikes, save for the S1000RR.
Where the bikes really shine is the top end pull - an S1000RR hits 124 mph in 6.8s, and traps low-mid 150's on a good run
